Best Cars for Teenagers

Is there a perfect first car for teens? Deciding on the best car for teenage drivers depends on who is doing the deciding — the teen or their parents.

Teenagers and their parents tend to have different objectives and priorities when it comes to cars, although it's often not difficult for the two parties to come to a mutually agreeable decision, especially when each party is willing to compromise a little. In this article, we'll try to look at the subject of first cars from both points of view.

What Teens Want Most teenagers place considerable importance on a car's style (sporty), appearance (cool), performance (fast), size (room for friends), and accessories (customization). Girls also like "cute" cars.

An automobile is a projection of a teen's personality, sense of freedom, and desire for peer approval — as well as possibly serving a practical need for getting back and forth to school and job.

Police seized car auctions and impound auctions can be a source of good used vehicles at great prices, if you know what you're doing and like a little excitement and risk. Impound vehicles of all types are available at auction sites all over the country.
